Lending money to a family member or borrowing money from a friend can turn to be a problem because the things might not go as they are planned. Therefore, most of the people often find it difficult to make a decision of lending money to a family member or borrowing money from a friend.

We believe that things can become a lot easier for you
if you deal with this situation as a formal business arrangement. Most of the
time, the friends and relatives agree upon providing a loan on just a promise.
But things get a lot difficult when the borrower fails to pay back the money or
forgets his promise.

In order to avoid such kind of problem, you must generate a formal loan agreement containing all the important terms. This document indicates that the borrower has borrowed a specific amount of money from the lender. Some people also consider relying on a promissory note but the loan agreement is a better option as it contains detailed information about the loan.

In this agreement, you can set a deadline for the repayment of the loan. And you can also add a property as collateral for the loan. Thus, you’d feel comfortable when giving a loan to a friend or relative.
